    I should of not voted like SA Friday because I too carry depending on weather. Almost the entire summer I carried the 340PD w/crimson trace. Gun is light and I can put it in a cargo pocket. During the winter my 40's come out since the heavy clothes are less likely to print.

    When I feel the need to carry it is always a G20 10mm. Bianchi Black Widow helps conceal it. (minimalist holster)

    I have sold all my 45ACP's, still have some 9mm and 40's. Love the reliability of the revolver in 38 special or 357 magnum. Pocket 5 shot revolvers are small too.

    Long story short... any gun is better than no gun when you need one.
    I say lets all remove the warning labels and let nature take its course.

    .40 S&W and .380. I've been thinking of getting an ankle holster for my G27, since I've been carrying my G23 IWB and the .380 on the ankle, but I think it might be a tad to bulky.

    Lots of FBI agents carry a G27 for back up in an ankle holster. It prints unless you are wearing bell bottoms.

    Yeah, thats one of the reasons I haven't done it yet. I really like my LCP in the ankle holster as a back up, I was just thinking of consolidating to the same caliber/mag compatibility.

    Glock 23 95% of the time... full-size 1911 every now and then.

    What holster do you use for your G23?

    If I were to move to something different, it would probably be in 9mm.
    I change out between a .380, 9mm, and a .45 depending on the daily events. Beretta Cheetahs are slick .380s.
